Morphology is the study of word structure and formation. It involves the analysis of morphemes like roots, affixes, and stems. There are two main types of morphemes - inflectional morphemes which mark grammatical functions and derivational affixes which can change word categories. Some common word formation processes in English include affixation, compounding, clipping, blending, borrowing, back-formation, and functional shift. Morphemes can be categorized as root morphemes, which have an individual lexical meaning, or non-root morphemes like inflections and affixes.

All words belong to categories called word classes (or parts of speech) according to the part they play in a sentence. The main word classes in English are:
- Noun
- Verb
- Adjective
- Adverb
- Pronoun
- Conjunction
- Determiner
- Exclamation
- Preposition

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. WHAT IS MORPHOLOGY?
Morphology is the study of word structure ; how the
word is created. It deals with the internal structure of
complex words and the information of new words.
11. Derivational affixes can mark
category change
The derivational suffix –able derives an adjective
from a verb, implying an ability with a passive
relation with its stem:
Eatable means able to be eaten
(commestibile), not able to eat.
Suffix –erderives a noun from a verb, indicating
a human agent or an inanimate instrument:
Speaker(parlante o amplificatore); Baker
(fornaio);
12. The suffixes –ful and –less derives an
adjective from a noun.
-ful indicates addiction, abundance;
-less indicates subtraction, reduction:
careful = full of care
careless = with no care
13. Root
A root is a word or word
part from which other
words grow, usually
through the addition of
prefixes and suffixes. It
usually appear as
independent words.
14. Stem
A stem is that part of a word to which grammatical
affixes are added. It may consist -amongst others
a) solely of a single root morpheme (i.e. a simple stem
as in do g )
b) two root morphemes (i.e. a compound stem, as in
blackbird)
c) root morpheme plus a derivational affix (i.e. a
complex stem, as in unscre w)
a):cats: single root morpheme: cat+ inflectional suffix – s
b):cro wbars: two root morphemes (cro w + bar) +
inflectional suffix – s
c):inve ntio ns : root morpheme inve nt+ lexical suffix -io n
15. Semantic classification of
morphemes
1. Root-morphemes (radicals) - the lexical nucleus of
words, which has an individual lexical meaning shared
by no other morpheme of the language:
re write , ho pe ful, diso rde r
write hope- -order
The root-morpheme is isolated as the morpheme common
to a set of words making up a word-cluster:
work- in to work, worker, workingor
theor- intheory, theorist, theoretical, etc.
2. Non-root morphemes include inflectional morphemes
(inflections) and affixational morphemes (affixes).
Inflections carry only grammatical meaning.
Lexicology is concerned only with affixational
morphemes.

main types of acronyms, namely:
1. Acronym which are pronounced as a word

‘alphabetism)
Ex: C.O.D., FBI, VIP, TV, etc.
